How to use

Clean: Rinse occasionally with warm water and gently scrub away any soap residue using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives to preserve the natural clay finish.
Dry: Let the dish air dry completely before storing. This keeps the clay strong and prevents moisture buildup.
Avoid Prolonged Water Exposure: Barro is a natural, porous material — while durable, it’s best not to leave it soaking in water in the sink for long periods.
Handle with Care: Each piece is handmade and unique.

Do Put in the Dishwasher!
